In between selling ads today I’m having a small lunch with some bloggers here at the Border Grille and Bar today from 12-1 or so.

If you are not familiar with their lunch buffet here is a peek from last month

There was a reason why Stacy McCain held court here last January, and food like this is why.

Ironically this fits in perfect with Michael Graham’s lead story today:

And so Kessler and other big-government advocates featured in the NYTimes are demanding government regulation on foods that taste “too good,” and on ads that sell them “too well.” Who will make these arbitrary decisions? Why the same brilliant government employees who figured out that the pond in your back yard is a wetland and who are sending notes home with your kids telling you they’re fat.

This is a SNL skit just waiting to be written, Kessler’s Kitchen Nightmares where Kessler goes to restaurants that have too many people enjoying their food and teaches them how to make it taste worse!

You know when you go door to door selling ads for your radio show it’s sometimes hard to explain to a business why they should invest their advertising on you. Lucky for me WordPress has done the work for me today with the following e-mail summary:

The stats helper monkeys at WordPress.com mulled over how this blog did in 2010, and here’s a high level summary of its overall blog health:

Healthy blog!

The Louvre Museum has 8.5 million visitors per year. This blog was viewed about 270,000 times in 2010. If it were an exhibit at The Louvre Museum, it would take 12 days for that many people to see it.

In 2010, there were 2592 new posts, growing the total archive of this blog to 4680 posts.

The busiest day of the year was January 5th with 11,320 views. The most popular post that day was Boy is the news boring today….

Where did they come from?

The top referring sites in 2010 were pajamasmedia.com, theothermccain.com, michellemalkin.com, hotair.com, and Google Reader.

Some visitors came searching, mostly for mattie fein, da tech guy, across the universe, datechguy, and sexporn those guys must have been disappointed with what they found here..

Thus ends the Summary produced by WordPress. Let’s put it another way:

My show premiered in Nov of 2010. From November 1st to today (Jan 3rd 2011) over 50,000 people have been to this website. 1 minute of advertising on my Radio show broadcast with 50,000 watts throughout NE and beyond if purchased for 4 weeks currently costs only $49.50 per week.

And if you are a small blogger 15 seconds over the same period can be had for $18 a week.

The question isn’t why over 83% of my ad time is currently taken, the question is why you don’t have a piece of that other 17%? e-mail us here to change that. Or leave a comment and I’ll contact you with more information (current rates here).

Speaking of which if you are a Massachusetts-based conservative blogger who lives within 45 minutes of Worcester Massachusetts we need to talk, really soon.

Open house or no we have a show to do so tune in at 9:30 p.m. (due to BC Basketball pushing us and Conservatively speaking back 30 minutes)

Our primary guest is Barbara Espinosa of the blog AmericanFreedom and of KFNX’s Hair on Fire Monday evenings 8 p.m. Arizona time.

Our in house guest (literally as we are leaving from my open house party for the studio) will be DaScienceGuy.

We will be talking about the border, Amnesty and Venezuela and Iranian missiles and the stories the media blew the best in 2010.

So tune in to WCRN 830 AM on your dial if you are in our 50,000 Watt range and if you are not click on our site and listen live

And I want to welcome two new advertisers who are joining us this week:

Bee’s Shipping (who I’ve mentioned here). They take the sting out of shipping to Africa.

and The FCA flight center at Fitchburg Airport where you are only $59 away from the controls of your first flight. Welcome aboard!

And make sure you come back for our incredible lineup this month:

Jan 8th Babalu blog

Jan 15th Instapundit

Jan 22nd Little Miss Attila

Jan 29th Fisherville Mike

Tune in Saturdays at 9 p.m. (or anytime online at the blog) and be a part of the show and remember starting Feb 5th we go to TWO HOURS with double the fun, more guests, more bloggers, more FEDORAS!

Well tomorrow is another year and to my knowledge he still hasn’t changed sides on Israel so there is still a slight hope for him, but I wouldn’t want to make book on when that will change.
